I had that issue and found the easiest way to solve it was it was to create a 
wixlib using wixstdba.wxs as an example. IIRC you need the code from 
wixstdba.wxs in your code somewhere and a wixlib was the simplest way to 
achieve it.

Subject: [WiX-users] building a custom bootstrapper application from wixstdba

hello
i have built a custom bootstrapper application, based on wixstdba.
when i run the bootstrapper built using this dll, it can't probe for the 
thm.wxl and thm.xml files.

i have added those files as payload, that way :

   <BootstrapperApplication SourceFile="..\Resources\customba.dll">
     <Payload Id="thm.wxl-en_US" Compressed="yes" Name="1033\thm.wxl"
SourceFile="..\Resources\thm.wxl"/>
     <Payload Id="thm.xml-en_US" Compressed="yes" Name="1033\thm.xml"
SourceFile="..\Resources\thm.xml"/>
    </BootstrapperApplication>

this solves that part of the problem, but now i get the following error :

...Error 0x80070057: BootstrapperApplication.xml manifest is missing wixstdba 
information.
...Error 0x80070057: Failed to read bootstrapper application data.
...Error 0x80070057: Failed to initialize data in bootstrapper application.

Indeed, the code is looking for
"/BootstrapperApplicationData/WixStdbaInformation"
in "BootstrapperApplication.xml" ..

what am i missing ?
why should i do ?

thank you in advance.
